Well, again, its been awhile since I've written.
Things have been quite busy! My mom came to visit us (or mainly Abby) from Boston...she flew in last Saturday and stayed until Wednesday. Joe was supposed to be TDY to Idaho so it was going to be just a girls week...but that ended up getting cancelled.
We were able to do lots of fun things while Nana was in town. We hit up the Build A Bear workshop where Abby made a fluffy bunny that we named Abby. She picked out this really cute outfit for it but keeps taking it off...and we made it have words...but seeing as I got to choose that because she was taking them all the bunny sings "take me out to the ball game" which maybe doesn't go so well with a bunny dressed in a tank top and skirt from Limited Too...ahh, but whatever.
I also had an open house on Sunday at Josie's house for my Pampered Chef stuff. I started selling it mainly because I wanted a few things that I couldn't justify paying full price for :D So, that's why...and now I'm getting more stuff because even though Joe and I have stuff that is relatively new for most people...after five years it still looks old...and let me tell you how nice it is to have new kitchen stuff :D Don't worry, we're donating the other stuff to good homes!!
Uncle Josh managed to come down on Sunday for a visit too - and Joe & Josh had a good time playing Guitar Hero and hanging out with Abby. At night we all went out for dinner...it was okay but nothing fabulous!
Monday night Joe & I managed to get a little alone time and have a date...Abby didn't mind staying with Nana one bit!!! And then, when Joe & I got home Joe took over and played and I got a little time to run to the store with my Mom - it was fabulous :)
I can't remember what we did everyday -- but man, we had a blast! She left on Wednesday after a short delay at the airport thanks to the weather in Boston...and we can't wait for her to come back again!!!
Thursday was Valentine's Day...and although Joe & I didn't exchange anything too fabulous and pricey we did get each other a joint gift...I'll get pictures up soon I hope!!! Abby loved the gifts that came in from all over :) And she loves loves loves mnms!!!
And, here we are the long weekend - its fabulously cold and rainy...ok, its not cold and rainy but its not nice and sunny either...we're all waiting for Spring and some nice weather where we can spend the weekends outside doing lots of fun stuff!!!
Joe leaves tomorrow for North Carolina for the week :) He should be home sometime on Friday!!
For now...that's it :)
